Patient-tailored Protocol Prescription using Physics-informed Large Language Model Agents
Impact: Selection
of clinical protocols is prone to human errors which contribute to systemic loss
of $1.04 billion/year. We demonstrate a physics-informed LLM system that can
query the EHR-database and prescribe protocols with statistically maximum information
in less than 30 seconds/patient.
